QT dispersion in patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent thrombolytic treatment: is it really useful to predict good neuorologic recovery?

Abstract

In the current study, DeltaQT dispersion (DeltaQTD) was found to be a new predictor of neurologic change which may be potentially useful in prediction of functional recovery in patients with acute cerebrovascular accident treated with thrombolytic treatment. We believe that DeltaQTD might be a new prognostic determiner in patients with acute cerebrovascular accident undergoing thrombolytic treatment. But it is too early to talk about the prognostic significance in patients with acute cerebrovascular accident not undergoing thrombolytic treatment.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
